    If "a" and\[''{{t}_{1/2}}''\]are initial concentration of reactant and half-life of a zero order reaction respectively, which of the following is correct?

    A)  \[{{t}_{1/2}}\propto \frac{1}{a}\]                            

    B)  \[{{t}_{1/2}}\propto a\]

    C)  \[{{t}_{1/2}}\propto \frac{1}{{{a}^{2}}}\]                             

    D)  \[{{t}_{1/2}}\propto {{a}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    For zero order reaction integrated rate equation is: \[kt={{[A]}_{0}}-[A]\] If \[{{[A]}_{0}}=a[A]=\frac{a}{2},t={{t}_{1/2}}\]                 \[k\,{{t}_{1/2}}=a-\frac{a}{2}\]                 \[k\,{{t}_{1/2}}=\frac{a}{2}\]                 \[{{t}_{1/2}}=\frac{a}{2k}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{t}_{1/2}}\propto a\]
